The Ancient Egyptians already knew it:\u00a0to make paper you do not have to cut down trees<\/strong><\/em>, they used papyrus from the papyrus plant instead. Throughout the ages different types of materials were used as information carriers such as parchment, clay tablets, bark, bones and shells.<\/div>\n

Paper in its current form originally comes from China. Well into the 19th century, paper production generally was small and local in nature. With industrialization and the invention of board paper, the production of paper increased large scale along with the demand for the primary raw material of paper: cellulose that can be obtained from trees.<\/p>\n

The production process of making paper from trees takes a lot of energy, water and chemicals and results in different emissions to air and water. These emissions may include nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and particulate matter.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column

and degraded at an alarming rate. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimates that between 1990 and 2020, 420 million hectares of forest \u2014 about 10% of the world’s remaining forests, equivalent to an area larger than the European Union \u2014 have been lost worldwide. Deforestation and forest degradation are in turn major drivers of global warming and biodiversity loss \u2014 the two most important environmental problems of our time. Yet 10 million hectares of forest are still lost worldwide every year.<\/p>\n

Combating deforestation and forest degradation is an important part of the package of measures needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat biodiversity loss.<\/p>\n

Deforestation and consequential loss of biodiversity and erosion is a serious global problem. With replanting trees you can mitigate some of the harmful effects of using trees for paper. It should and could be done better.<\/p>\n

We have to go back to the source, back to the origin of the raw material of paper. The world is ready for a structural and sustainable solution for not using trees for paper packaging.

These bio-based resources (re)grow annually as opposed to trees that need up to as many as 80 years to grow before it is made into paper.<\/p>\n

By making clever use of agri-residues, which otherwise as “waste” have no value, scarce resources are optimally utilized. In addition we also save on CO2 emissions for the production of this unique paper and protect forests without compromising on the end product’s quality.
